Barminco secures $393 million contract

Regis Resources has awarded Barminco a $393 million three-year contract for services as its Duketon gold project in Western Australia.

The contract commenced on April 1 and includes underground development, production and support services.

Barminco has been providing its services to Regis through development and production works since February 2019.

Perenti (Barminco’s parent company) managing director and chief executive officer Mark Norwell said the company is pleased to be continuing its partnership with Regis.

“This award adds Australian based underground earnings to our portfolio, which is aligned with the ongoing delivery of our strategy,” he said.

President of contract mining Gabrielle Iwanow said Perenti’s people were at the heart of the company’s success.

“Their dedication, innovative thinking and highly skilled efforts have again resulted in the award of a significant contract with the third largest Australian gold producer on the ASX, at a great mine that is located right here in WA,” Iwanow said.

“We are proud to continue partnering with Regis Resources as we embark on this alliance style contract to further deliver on our purpose of creating enduring value and certainty.”
